The first painting below is from a screenshot that I took from the filmThe Tenants. I'm always looking for interesting abstract art or art that only has inanimate objects in it. The painting didn't play a significant role in the film, but it must have had some significance to the director, because the actor intentionally stood next to it in a scene. Does anyone know the name of the artist or painting? The second piece is mine. I call it Behind the American Gothic, and it is the first piece in my Behind the Art project.

If you're a writer and you're having trouble being motivated, focused or being interrupted by selfish people who don't take your writing time seriously, this is the book for you. If you want examples of two writers who take their writing seriously and puts it first, then read this book. It's a page turner, I've read it several times, and the movie, very ironically starring Snoop Dog, is just as good.
